Already discussed a few post up.

Quad core still underutilize unless you do use multi-core apps such as folding.

Q6600 is 2.4 Ghz only, not as overclockable as dual-core
E6850 is 3.0 Ghz! Much more overclockable and cooler than quad.

Oh, sh*t. I'm late for work!!!  sweat.gif

Oh my... very sorry.. doh.gif

But I do hope for a price cut for E6600... then I can upgrade my home PC as well...

erm.. my friend is using E6600... but with this sudden price cut he's thinking of changing to E6850 now. Is it worth it?? Or perhaps overclocking to 3.0GHz is better for him?? (he's on stock cooler btw... wonder if he can oc up to 3.0GHz btw laugh.gif )

And (probably discussed already before.. but I'm going to have rclxub.gif if I started to read from page one again laugh.gif ) is the difference (performance) between 1033 and 1333 fsb really that significance??

Guess that is the only way left now... or perhaps asking someone to buy from LowYat Plaza... but I'm quite afraid of posting something like a processor using POS Laju sweat.gif

oh.. havent comfirm yet. Cos still waiting others computer shop new C2D price.

I think Penang's computer shop will bring in E6850 recently as it alrd drop below RM1K.

oh. Phoenixwunin, what is the purpose you want to buy this processor? play games?
*
Yeah.. playing games onli.. nothing else.

Previously was thinking of getting Q6600 instead of E6850... but lots of reviews in the internet and forumers here suggested me to take E6850 anytime over Q6600. So now I'm looking for E6850. Have been going around Penang for the last two days... and the only shops that sells E6550 and above is Skygate Technologies in Prangin Mall. And currently they don't have anything above E6550... one of the sales person told me the new stock will arrive in this coming Wednesday though. But he said to me E6850 won't be available... sad.gif
